The Art of drawing spirits into crystalsWritten by Johannes Trithemius

TheMagic and Philosophy ofTRITHEMIUS OF SPANHEIM;containing his book ofSECRET THINGS,andDOCTRINE OF SPIRITSwith many curious and rare secrets (hitherto not generally known;)THE ART OF DRAWING SPIRITS INTO CRYSTALS, &c.

Procure of a lapidary good clear pellucid crystal, of the bigness of a small orange, i.e. about one inch and a half in
diameter; let it be globular or round each way alike; then, when you have got this crystal, fair and clear, without
any clouds or specks, get a small plate of pure gold to encompass the crystal round one half; let this be fitted on an
ivory or ebony pedestal, as you may see more fully described in the drawing, [figure 1]. Let there be engraved a
circle (A) round the crystal with these characters around inside the circle next the crystal afterwards the name "Tetragrammaton"

On the other side of the plate let there
be engraven "Michael, Gabriel, Uriel, Raphael;" which are the four principal angels ruling over the Sun, Moon,
Venus and Mercury; but on the table on which the crystal stands the following names, characters, &c. must be
drawn in order.

First, The names of the seven planets and angels ruling them, with their seals or characters. The names of the four
kings of the four corners of the earth. Let them be all written within a double circle, with a triangle on a table; on
which place the crystal on its pedestal: this being done, thy table is complete (as in the Fig. D,) and fit for the calling of the spirits; after which thou shalt proceed to experiment, thus:

In what time thou wouldest deal with the spirits by the table and crystal, thou must observe the planetary hour; and
whatever planet rules in that hour, the angel governing the planet thou shalt call in the manner following; but first,
say this short prayer:

"Oh, God! who art the author of all good things, strengthen, I beseech thee, thy poor servant, that he
may stand fast, without fear, through this dealing and work; enlighten, I beseech thee, oh Lord! the
dark understanding of thy creature, so that his spiritual eye may be opened to see and know thy
angelic spirits descending here in this crystal: (then lay thy hand on the crystal saying,) and thou, oh
inanimate creature of God, be sanctified and consecrated, and blessed to this purpose, that no evil
phantasy may appear in thee; or, if they do gain ingress into this creature, they may be constrained to
speak intelligibly, and truly, and without the least ambiguity, for Christ's sake. Amen. And
forasmuch as thy servant here standing before thee, oh, Lord! desires neither evil treasures, nor
injury to his neighbour, nor hurt to any living creature, grant him the power of descrying those
celestial spirits or intelligences, that may appear in this crystal, and whatever good gifts (whether the
power of healing infirmities, or of imbibing wisdom, or discovering any evil likely to afflict any
person or family, or any other good gift thou mayest be pleased to bestow on me, enable me, by thy
wisdom and mercy, to use whatever I may receive to the honour of thy holy name. Grant this for thy
son Christ's sake. Amen.

"Then taking your ring and pentacle, put the ring on the little finger of your right hand; hang the pentacle round thy neck ; (Note, the pentacle may be either wrote on clean virgin parchment, or engraven on a square plate of silver and suspended from thy neck to the breast), then take your black ebony wand, with the gilt characters on it and trace the circle, (Fig. 7. C D E F,) saying,

"In the name of the blessed Trinity, I consecrate this piece of ground for our defence; so that no evil spirit may have power to break these bounds prescribed here, through Jesus Christ our Lord." Amen.

Then place the vessel for the perfumes between thy circle and the holy table on which the crystal stands, and, having fire therein, cast in thy perfumes, saying,

"I conjure thee, oh thou creature of fire! by him who created all things both in heaven and earth, and in the sea, and in every other place whatever, that forthwith thou cast away every phantasm from thee, that no hurt whatsoever shall be done in any thing. Bless, oh Lord, this creature of fire, and sanctify it that it may be blessed, and that they may fill up the power and virtue of their odours; so neither the enemy, nor any false imagination, may enter into them; through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen."

Now, this being done in the order prescribed, take out thy little book, which must be made about seven inches
long, of pure white virgin vellum or paper, likewise pen and ink must be ready to write down the name, character,
and office, likewise the seal or image of whatever spirit may appear (for this I must tell you that it does not happen
that the same spirit you call will always appear, for you must try the spirit to know whether he be a pure or impure
being, and this thou shalt easily know by a firm and undoubted faith in God.)

Now the most pure and simple way of calling the spirits or spirit is by a short oration to the spirit himself, which is more effectual and easy to perform than composing a table of letters; for all celestial operations, the more pure and
unmixed they are, the more they are agreable to the celestial spirits: therefore, after the circle is drawn, the book,
perfumes, rod, &c. in readiness, proceed as follows:

(After noticing the exact hour of the day, and what angel rules that hour, thou shalt say,)

"In the name of the blessed and holy Trinity, I do desire thee, thou strong mighty angel, Michael, [Or
any other angel or spirit] that if it be the divine will of him who is called Tetragrammaton &c. the
Holy God, the Father, that thou take upon thee some shape as best becometh thy celestial nature, and
appear to us visibly here in this crystal, and answer our demands in as far as we shall not transgress
the bounds of the divine mercy and goodness, by requesting unlawful knowledge; but that thou wilt
graciously shew us what things are most profitable for us to know and do, to the glory and honour of
his divine Majesty, who liveth and reigneth, world without end. Amen.

"Lord, thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven; -- make clean our hearts within us, and take not
thy Holy Spirit from us.

"O Lord, by thy name, we have called him, suffer him to administer unto us. And that all things may
work together for thy honour and glory, to whom with thee, the Son, and blessed Spirit, be ascribed
all might, majesty and dominion. Amen"

Note, In these dealings, two should always be present; for often a spirit is manifest to one in the crystal when the
other cannot perceive him; therefore if any spirit appear, as there most likely will, to one or both, say,

"Oh, Lord! we return thee our hearty and sincere thanks for the hearing of our prayer, and we thank
thee for having permitted thy spirit to appear unto us which we, by thy mercy, will interrogate to our
further instruction, through Christ. Amen."

Interrog. 1. In the name of the holy and undefiled Spirit, the Father, the begotten Son, and Holy Ghost, proceeding
from both, what is thy true name?

If the spirit answers, Michael, then proceed.

Quest. 2. What is thy office? 3. What is thy true sign or character? 4. When are the times most agreeable to thy
nature to hold conference with us?

(Here let him swear, then write down his seal or character in thy book, and against it, his office and times to be
called, through God's name; also write down any thing he may teach thee, or any responses he may make to thy
questions or interrogations, concerning life or death, arts or sciences, or any other thing;) and then shalt thou say,

"Thou great and mighty spirit, inasmuch as thou camest in peace and in the name of the ever blessed
and righteous Trinity, so in this name thou mayest depart, and return to us when we call thee in his
name to whom every knee doth bow down. Fare thee well, Michael; peace be between us, through
our blessed Lord Jesus Christ. Amen."

Then will the spirit depart; then say,

"To God the Father, eternal Spirit, fountain of Light, the Son, and Holy Ghost, be all honour and
glory, world without end. Amen."

I shall here set down the Table of the names of Spirits and Planets governing the Hours; so thou shalt easily know
by inspection, what Spirit and Planet governs every Hour of the Day and Night in the Week.

Note, The day is divided into twelve equal parts, called Planetary Hours, reckoning from sunsire to sunset, and,
again, from the setting to the rising; and to find the planetary hour, you need but to divide the natural hours by
twelve, and the quotient gives the length of the planetary hours and odd minutes, which shews you how long a
spirit bears rule in that day; as Michael governs the first and the eighth hour on Sunday, as does the . After you
have the length of the first hour, you have only to look in the Table, as if it be the fourth hour, on Sunday, you see
in the Table that the and Gabriel rules; and so for the rest it being so plain and easy you cannot err.
